I have no idea about he company. I can tell you from experience with BB for the last 5 years that I think (just me, possibly?) they are junk phones if you want to go beyond business use. I'm on a 9650 (BB Bold) right now. I also carry a Droid Charge. Both on Verizon.
In every possible, measurable way I can think if (discounting the 3G vs. 4G), the Droid is far superior. No comparison to me.
It feels like trying to compare Windows 3.11 for Workgroups to Win7 x64 with current gen parts. Both will word process, print, and play back a CD for music... but who would do that in 2012?
Get Android to use some kind of BES counterpart with level 1 notifications (paging), at a price that competes on the corporate level, world-wide compatible use, and RIM is done.
